Former AFTA ceo Mike Hatton paid tribute to Watson, saying he was “in many respects larger than life; a man of great integrity and compassion”.

Watson’s funeral will take place next Wed 05 Oct 16 at 1.15pm at the Reflection Chapel, Springvale Cemetery in Clayton, Melbourne.

VA stake cost Air NZ $86mAIR New Zealand’s decision to

offload its stake in Virgin Australia cost the carrier NZ$86 million, with the figure detailed by chairman Tony Carter at the Air NZ annual general meeting today.

The impact was recorded under the “other significant items” section of the airline’s financial results - along with NZ$57 million relating to the settlement of a long-standing legal claim in the USA in connection with allegations of collusion over the price of cargo surcharges.

Air NZ has never accepted any wrongdoing about the cargo case, but Carter said “we took the view that the risk of not settling could potentially have resulted in Air New Zealand paying a significantly larger amount”.

In relation to the Virgin Australia stake, Carter said Air NZ had decided to exit the investment because “the size of the capital we had in that business was simply getting to be too large a percentage of our total equity

than we were comfortable with”.CEO Christopher Luxon said he

was expecting a return to more normal competitive market conditions, citing rapid expansion by international carriers from the US, from China, from Southeast Asia and the Middle East all coming to New Zealand.

He said Air NZ was expecting total network capacity to rise 4-6% this year, with larger 787 aircraft on the Honolulu route, growth on Houston and Buenos Aires, increased Queenstown flights and larger ATR turboprops on the domestic market.

AirAsia complaintsNO FRILLS carrier AirAsia

continues to dominate the travel & tourism sector for the wrong reasons, ranking as the most complained about business in the sector by NSW Fair Trading.

According to the NSW Govt’s Complaints Register, the Malay- carrier received 15 objections during the month of Aug - the 9th highest in the state, behind real estate agencies and retailers.

Qantas was the only other airline to have its name on the grievance list (with 11 complaints), while Flight Centre (with 10) was the only travel agency on the table.

AirAsia’s troubling feedback in Aug was 10 less registered gripes than was reported to Fair Trading the month prior (TD 25 Aug).

Govt backs VA, Alliance jvTHE Dept of Infrastructure

and Regional Development has thrown its support behind a proposed partnership between Virgin Australia Regional Airlines and Alliance Aviation (TD 15 Sep).

The proposed Charter Alliance Agreement aims to enable Virgin and Alliance to better compete for fly-in, fly-out business.

In a submission to the ACCC lodged this week, the Australian Govt said the proposed pact is likely to “provide benefits through bringing increased competition and greater customer choice in the national market”.

Aviation Industry Policy gm Stephen Borthwick said: “Given the deregulated nature of the aviation industry within Australia, the charter alliance is consistent with Australia’s aviation settings which supports a competitive and sustainable Australian aviation industry & allows airlines to operate services based on commercial considerations”.

Borthwick added the earmarked coordination relating to frequent flyer programs and lounge access, as well as improved charter and regular public transport, should let both airlines compete “more effectively against competitors for charter traffic and increase the choice of market available”.

Adelaide Airports Ltd also said it supports the collaboration, which it said may facilitate the entrance of Virgin Australia Regional Airlines into the South Australian market.

Hotel Indigo AustraliaINTERCONTINENTAL Hotels

Group is reportedly weighing up sites to set up its Hotel Indigo unit in the Australian market.

IHG’s Asia, Middle East & Africa head of luxury & lifestyle brand marketing Bruce Ryde said Melbourne and Sydney were on the brand’s radar.

“The Indigo brand would, we feel, work well in places like Surry Hills and the eastern suburbs and we are keen to be there sooner rather than later,” he said.

Ryde said the brand resonates with Australia as it is a “mature market and travellers are always looking for a new experience”.

Management, Tramada – your technology partner

One of the key focuses for Tramada is to improve the consultants’ workflow efficiency. By

that we mean to automate as many parts of the travel management process as possible, to facilitate the seamless flow of data and to minimise manual intervention whenever possible.

All the major GDS also invest heavily in automating booking processes. This is good news for agents because tramada® uses the GDS’ web services integration layer to ensure data flows between the GDS and the mid office in an efficient and seamless manner. Agents know that data never has to be entered a second time with little risk of data being lost, corrupted or changed. This will improve as the integration between the GDS and mid office increases.

Tramada will be announcing features that enhance the integration with the GDS and will further empower the consultant to dramatically increase their workflow efficiencies. Tramada believes this trend will continue and there will be a time in the future when the integration between the GDS Point of Sale tool and tramada® will be such that the consultant will work seamlessly across both without giving it a second thought and without a single extra keystroke. Now that is exciting!
